Will helping the war effort help mend her broken heart
September 1939. London is in blackout, war has been declared, but Dulcie Treadwell can think only of American broadcaster, Glenn Reeves, who didnt say goodbye before leaving for Berlin.
Heartbroken, Dulcie is posted to Bletchley Park, where she must concentrate instead on cracking the German Enigma codes. The hours are long and the conditions tough, with little recognition from above. Until she breaks her first code
But when a spiteful act of jealousy leads to Dulcies brutal dismissal, her life is left in pieces once more. Is it too late for Dulcie to prove her innocence and keep the job she loves And will her heart ever truly heal if she doesnt hear from Glenn again

A gripping read My Weekly
Meticulously researched and brings into focus the sterling work of the women of the ATA An engrossing story, with a strong, likeable female protagonist facing issues we still face today Historical Novel Society Magazine
Memorable characters, a well written, plausible plot and very good descriptions of the time and place. The scenes and details of Dr Barnardos are especially interesting as the plight of orphans is rarely considered when we think of World War Two We often forget the ordinary people surviving day-to-day back home Discovering Diamonds Blog
